I used to go to this food court near my previous work place for breakfast with a couple of my ex-colleagues many years ago. The drinks stall usually served simple breakfast fare like kaya toast with soft boiled eggs; roti john; toasted bun etc, you get the gist... but at one time they introduced this sandwich which I can't remember what was the name since it was "that" long ago. In fact I have totally forgotten about this sandwich which I liked cos it has two of my favourite items - kaya and egg!
One morning recently, I've made myself just a simple bread with kaya, then I noticed I haven't placed my eggs into the fridge. Hence, I took the carton and lifted the eggs from the carton to place them into the fridge. Anyway, one of the egg cracked a little whilst I was doing it eeekkk! So what should I do??? Since I didn't want to keep the egg, what better way than to use it right away.
I cracked 2 eggs into a bowl and lightly beat it. Lightly oiled a frying pan and proceed to made a thin omelette. In fact I could made 2 thin ones from 2 eggs! Next, I slotted the omelette in between my kaya spreaded bread, the Hainanese (kopitiam) type, and voila... a Kaya and Omelette Sandwich heh :p
One set for me and another set for Capt'n Hook. Ohhh yums!
Sorry for the lameness of this post LOL. Happy morning!

ReplyDeletegosh, just like everyone else, i've never tried kaya with egg before either ... i love both ingredients separately, but together? hmmmmm .... am kinda thinking eggs and peanut butter might be a more harmonious marriage, heheh :D
